Barron Trump heard on video for the first time in years
A Barron Trump video has exploded.
This is because the video captured the 18-year-old's voice on a recording for the first time, according to the Daily Mail, since he was a toddler.
Barron Trump, of course, is the youngest son of President-Elect Donald Trump and the former and future First Lady, Melania Trump.
Barron has been the most elusive of Trump's children, avoiding the spotlight, much like his mother. He appears to be a very reserved person, which is why this recording has caught so many by surprise.

The Daily Mail reports on the circumstances of the video, writing:
The clip, posted on by the Johnny MAGA account on X, appears to come from election night, based on the Fox News battleground coverage in the background. The sound of Barron's recorded voice is so scant that clips more than a decade old have circulated recently.
In addition to Barron, the video also features his father, Donald Trump, and UFC CEO Dana White, who has become one of the president-elect's top supporters.
According to the Daily Mail, Trump was taking the opportunity to thank podcasters, and Barron joined him to do so.
The outlet reports:
'Hello. How are you? Very nice to see you,' he says to a person who is not in the shot. Then, Barron's father introduces him to White . . . Trump, who regularly speaks admirably about his son but reveals few personal details, then spoke about the response Barron got from the crowd, in a possible reference to a rally. "I gave him a shout out last night, the place went crazy: Ba-ron Ba-ron" Trump says, gushing about his son. Then he quipped to White: 'Can we make him into a fighter?' – drawing guffaws from a crowd.
Background
The likely reason why Barron Trump joined his father to thank podcasters is that Barron, according to reports, was instrumental in his father's decision to appear on those podcasts.
Politico previously released a report, explaining:
As for who gets credit for which podcasts the presidential candidate goes on, [Trump advisor Jason] Miller, a longtime Trump loyalist, said it’s been a group effort on the campaign but gave a special shoutout to Trump’s 18-year-old son, Barron.
The outlet went on to quote Miller.
"Hats off to the young man. Every single recommendation he’s had has turned out to be absolute ratings gold that’s broken the Internet," he said.
Recently, John Morgan described Barron Trump as "smarter" than anyone on Vice President Kamala Harris's presidential campaign.
